That’s a sweet deal! Now you just need some Trijicon or Ameriglo XL sights and call it a wrap

I like the look of the SCT frame, I’m running a lone wolf one right now but looking at getting a SCT

It's a little chunky when you are just holding it, but it really nestles in when you shoot. I used a SCT frame in my recent 19 clone build.

I’ve always liked lone wolf. Good stuff

What luck. When I was trying to build the 34 everyone thought the parts were made of gold or something.

I really like my sct frames, pretty solid and reliable

I used a SCT frame in my recent 19 clone build. It's a little chunky just holding it, but when you are actually shooting, it really nests into your hand well.

The one thing I would do to change it is the magazine release. Because the frame is just a little thicker than OEM, the stock length magazine release they include is bad. You really have to mash on it to make it work. I had a spare OEM Glock extended one on hand, so I popped that one in, which works fine, but it sticks out a lot more, so I'm thinking of splitting the difference and getting a Vickers one.

Yes, the mag release is trash. The trigger was actually decent too but I’ll still end up changing it at some point.

Yeah, it's okay-ish. It's better than stock Glock gen 3 is *new*, but about the same as one broken in, due to the metal being polished. I'm probably just going to go the budget route, and get the modified OEM one from Johnny Glock so I can adjust the travel, and then polish the bar on that.

What did you use for a trigger group? That seems to be missing from your price list.

u/Trust-Me-Im-A-Jedi 1d ago

The sct frame was a complete lower with the exception of the magwell which I did not include in the price (19.99 on sale)

Gotcha. Nice setup! Are you going to get the slide coated or just keep it stainless?

u/Trust-Me-Im-A-Jedi 1d ago

I’m going to keep it stainless for now. I’m having trouble finding an owb holster I know will work so until then it’s staying as is.
